fastCRW

About fastCRW

fastCRW is a managed web-data API for AI agents that bundles seven endpoints — search, AI-powered search, scrape, parse, extract, monitor, map and crawl — behind one credit meter where one credit equals one page regardless of which renderer the request needed. That last detail is the pricing argument: competitors typically charge more for JavaScript rendering than for plain HTML, so a crawl's cost depends on what it happens to encounter. fastCRW positions itself explicitly as a cheaper Firecrawl and Tavily alternative and publishes benchmark data on 1,000-URL coverage and latency to support the claim rather than asserting it. The monitor endpoint is the one that does not have an obvious equivalent elsewhere: it watches a page — a competitor's pricing table, a changelog — and reports changes, which is a standing job rather than a one-shot fetch. Integrations ship for LangChain, n8n, MCP, Cursor and others, with a one-command skill install for agents and a live playground for testing every endpoint without writing code. The whole thing is AGPL-3.0 open source, so self-hosting on your own infrastructure is free and unmetered forever; the paid tiers buy the managed cloud, concurrency and the absence of infrastructure to run.
